UbiDuo has become a life-saver in many medical settings, especially when an interpreter cannot be obtained quickly. It enables the deaf or hard of hearing patient to talk with their doctor privately without any misunderstanding or miscommunication.
UbiDuo has also been used with hearing patients who have temporary or permanent disabilities, including speech-impaired and stroke patients who can hear and can type but cannot talk.
UbiDuo Experiences
Callaway Community Hospital in Fulton, MO, purchased a UbiDuo to serve their patients who are deaf. The hospital had faced communication issues involving deaf or hard of hearing patients and staff who cannot sign. The hospital had on-call interpreters, but patients sometimes had to wait an hour or more.
John Graves, CEO of Callaway Community Hospital, explains, "If we can make life easier for one deaf person, it's an investment that's worthwhile."
Lisa Clark, nursing unit director, says, "From our standpoint, it's making our job much easier. We're able to communicate quickly, easily." The hospital uses the UbiDuo in the emergency room, the obstetrics department, the medical/surgical unit, the intensive care unit, and the Fulton Medical Clinic associated with the hospital.
